Surfing The Wave

Our emotions are energy waves that shift constantly. Like breathing, emotions happen without
having to think about them and like breathing, you can regulate them by
bringing attention to them without resistance, judgment or attachment to
outcome.

Simply naming our emotions, without labeling them as good or bad,
can release stuck or negative emotions and amplify positive emotions. Ultimately, our emotions are a vital
indicator of whether or not our needs are being met. Leaning to appreciate all emotions and
identifying these needs is an important step in achieving better results.

The emotions and energy we
choose to surround ourselves with has a huge impact on our results. The process whereby the behavior
of an individual or group of individuals gradually begins to spill over and
affect the behavior of the group as a whole is called emotional contagion. We catch the
wave of emotional within the organization.

In order to create a safe
business environment where employee failure and innovation are seen as
essential building blocks on the road to success, authenticity and emotional
intelligence is essential. Innovation requires trust and the feeling of safety. You must
believe that the people you work with have your back. Authentic
emotionally intelligent individuals would never sacrifice your safety for their
personal benefit.
